This curriculum guide frames b'nei mitzvah as a passage into full Jewish agency, including the ability to take on Jewish communal obligations. The curriculum focuses on hachnasat orchim (welcoming the stranger), bikur cholim (visiting the sick), and l’vayat hamet (comforting the mourner)—examining their origins in classical Jewish sources, investigating how they are being enacted in students' communities, and engaging students in individualized service projects.
